TISSUE SPARING SURGICAL APPROACHES

Product Overview

MicroPort Orthopedics is at the forefront of surgical techniques for total hip replacement designed to minimize tissue damage and streamline recovery.

With over 50 years of clinical history, MicroPort Orthopedics has extensive experience in all aspects of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). We offer a full range of acetabular systems and femoral stems in various styles and philosophies to complement our range of surgical approaches.

E-CLASS® VITAMIN E BLENDED HIGHLY CROSS-LINKED POLYETHYLENE

Poly Material Selection

Specific polyethylene has been chosen to manufacture the acetabular liners with a high impact strength, tensile strength, and yield strength.¹

Cross-Linking Process

The selected polyethylene is subjected to a radiation cycle to facilitate cross-linking of the polymers and enhance wear resistance. The mechanical properties of the material are maintained.

Vitamin E Treatment

Following irradiation, Vitamin E stabilizes any remaining free radicals and continuously prevents oxidation. The presence of Vitamin E eliminates the need for remelting, resulting in improved mechanical strength.

Machining & Final Sterilization

Liners are machined, cleaned, packaged, and sterilized, which does not reintroduce free radicals or cause any other measurable change to the polymer.

Design Features

- Improves wear resistance²

- Undetectable free radicals³

- Maintains mechanical strength³
